Read by James Buckley aka unforgettable Jay from The Inbetweeners'

With his trademark brand of bulldozer-banter, Twitter legend James Felton guides you through the most morbidly fascinating facts you'll then wish you could forget.

Ever wondered why the chainsaw was invented?* How authorities dealt with a beached whale back in ye olde days of 1970?** Or what being a human decanter entails?*** Then you've come to the right place!

Within these pages you'll find the maddest, strangest and downright grossest stories from history, nature and science that you don't want to know. (Except secretly you really do you masochistic, beastly person you.) Illustrated, painfully funny and drop-your-jaw ridiculous, this is trivia from the cesspit of time that you won't be able to stop reading once you start.

*To aid childbirth.
**They exploded it with 100 times too much dynamite and rained blubber down on unsuspecting people and buildings.
***Decency prevents us from answering this one here. You'll have to buy the book to find out.

James Felton is a writer and journalist, whose articles regularly appear in the Guardian, Independent, Daily Mash and IFL Science. As a writer for television, his work includes the BAFTA award-winning The Dog Ate My Homework. His books 52 Times Britain was a Bellend, Sunburn and You Don't Want to Know have between them sold over 125,000 copies. He has over 330,000 followers on Twitter and routinely goes viral.
